Comment (by serge-cohen):

 Thank you for such a rapid answer, and sorry to see that indeed the
 problem is much larger than the «small one» I have with this package.

 I understand, that the cause of my problem is rather «in the upstream»
 because of the way g-ir-scanner is ''mangling'' the environment in which
 it executes its necessary processes.

 Is there anything I can do here to help ? Do you feel it would help you in
 anyway if I'd filled a bug report to GIR ?

 Also, I had much troubles to find documentation on the way g-ir-scanner is
 processing its input. Do you have any pointers ? Maybe understanding how
 to «capture» the generated executable (which is currently in a temporary
 directory that I never managed to ''catch'' before it is destructed) would
 help finding a way around…

 Again, thanks for the help, and in general with the work done by MacPorts
 !

 Serge.
